Five Roundups From Five Months: Purple & Brown

Hello everyone! Today I have some purple and brown looks to share!

I've done two of my final exams now, so I'm halfway through! They both went super well and I'm hoping to keep that trend going. I can't wait until I'm free and done with these roundup posts so I can get back into proper blogging!

Anyways, onto the nails!

Navy & Purple Dry Marble with Some Hex Nail Jewelry!

Hey everyone! Today I have some dark dry marble nails to share!

Last night we went to a horror movie, and tonight we're going to a haunted house and then another horror movie! I swear I'll have a heart attack before the weekend is over!

Anyways, onto the nails!

To start, I applied one coat of American Apparel Mount Royal. On one nail at a time, I applied a second coat of Mount Royal followed by a few blobs of Sonia Kashuk Jewel Orchid right from the brush from the bottle. With a striping brush, I swirled the two colours around until it looked cool!

With some top coat, I decided to add some Hex Nail Jewelry charms because I love these things! They are reusable and I probably have close to 50 by now!

What do you guys think of this look? I feel like these were hard to photograph because of the glare but I really liked them!

Squishy Rainbow Marble Using the OPI Color Paints & A Mint and Lilac Look On Top!

Hey everyone! Today I have some super fun rainbow marble nails as well as a mint and lilac look I did on top to share!

Rather than talk a lot about my plan to start posting on here once a day, I'll just try and do it! School has been quite crazy but it has calmed down a little and I'm starting to get used to the workload. So let's get onto the many pictures and the details!

I fell madly in love with the idea of the OPI Color Paints, and once a good review of them came out I was ecstatic! They are definitely amazing (hence why I picked up the rest after I bought the three I used here :P).

I decided to buy the three colours closest to the real primary colours (magenta, yellow and cyan) at first in case I wouldn't have the money to buy them all. They blend together so beautifully as you can see!

For this look I just stippled blobs of each colour (Magenta Muse, Primarily Yellow and Turquoise Aesthetic) in with a small paintbrush, making sure the blobs overlapped.

I'm all about the sheer or partially naked nail look as you likely know, so I loved the sheer and squishy look of these!

They kind of looked like the coolest candies that could ever exist.

I'm also all about challenging myself to recycle manis for the WNAC (Weekly Nail Art Challenge) 2015 so here's what I came up with for the mint and lilac prompt!

I think I've used striping tape once or twice in my nail art life, so I decided to try some out!

These ended up quite girly but I still think they're pretty cool! I used OPI You're Such A Budapest and That's Hula-rious! I think this look as well as lots of dry marbles on Instagram have sparked my love for the technique as you'll see soon on here!

So what do you guys think of these looks? Did you like it better without the pastels on top or with? I prefer them without but I love that I got two totally different looks from the same base!

Thanks so much for taking a look you lovely people! I hope you're all doing well! I'll be back with some more Color Paints looks very soon! Happy Saturday! :)
